Wine | DWWA Score | My score | My comment |
---|---|---|---|
Justino Single Cask Bual 2006 | Platinum - 97 | 95 | Well balanced on the nose, on the palate the wine takes its time to build but delivers generous fruit on the mid and late palate. Long, long finish that moves through a number of different phases. This is most definitely wine to sip and savour. |
Henriques & Henriques 20YO Malvasia | Gold - 96 | 96 | Rich and concentrated on the nose, gloriously ebullient. Just as big, rich and dark on the palate with intense concentration and a magnificent madeirised maturity. Fabulous wine, I could lose an afternoon sipping this glass and watching the world go by. |

Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

Alex, Thank you for this. The H&H 20 YO Malvasia is a gem, isn't it?
